摘要
CdTe has unique advantages for space applications solar cells. Previous structures were not able to yield the full potential of single crystalline solar cells. The limitations of these structures are discussed. We then report a new structure that is being studied with numerical simulations and preliminary experimental results. The actual fabrication and characterization of the cells under study are discussed in detail.
